Am I supposed to figure them out? A simple "'aux-bus' warning is fixed
by commit XYZ in foo tree' in the patch would help. Then I won't send
the failure email (I do review them, so it's not your free testing
service :) ). If you list the dependency then I'm not going to spam
folks with failures. If you don't then I will so no one applies things
without dependencies (as often they are not queued).

Sometimes, but you don't have to guess. You can look at patchwork.
Though there is a latency between sending failure emails and my
changing PW state.

In any case, it looks good to me.
